And yet this movie made 247 MILLION DOLLARS!!! It only cost $80 million, meaning it was very profitable!!! It made more money than "Gattaca," "The Shawshank Redemption," and "Bladerunner" COMBINED!!! I just don't understand humanity...
I'm guessing people just wanna see stupid. However, knowing that this movie made more money than the fucking shawshank redemption movie, now I'm depressed. :(
Could be the worst movie I ever witnessed. I can't believe I sat through this steaming pile of crap. It is up there with That's my Boy and Just go With it, I will never watch another Adam Sandler film again.
"you're bad people", god I love Matt. Because he is very professional and often gives dispassionate impartial "grownup" analysis, when he does bring the funny it just has that extra zing. Plus he has consistently been the best reviewer on this show.
Hmmmm yeah this movie was a pile of shit, I didn't laugh once, it's just a typical modern Adam Sandler film like Jack and Jill, it's a shame I liked the wedding singer and Happy Gilmore, this guy used to be funny but now not a chance
No matter what I may disagree with Alonso Duralde on, I am SO HAPPY that we are united in searing hatred for Nick Swardson!!! That guy has NEVER been funny in anything. Even in Blades of Glory, which is actually quite funny, he was the one actor who sucked the fun out of the room. That guy should never work in anything ever again!
Someone I know told me they wanted to see this movie when it comes out and asked me to go with them. I told them I was going to stay home and watch "The Room". I just might.
I liked this movie but not as much as his old movies. I love happy Gilmore and Billy Madison. But I don't really know about this one its not as good as his old movies.
I REALLY love Matt's analysis of the movie. It's intelligent, hilarious, and completely honest. People who pay to see these films are, indeed, bad people.
The worst thing is that he can make good movies, but because they don't do well, he gives up on them. Funny People continues to be a prophetic spell on Sandler's career.
The thing is you know what these guys are capable of. To not even try and just grab a paycheck is insulting. I'm glad Matt got worked up about that and said what needed to be said.
I'm guessing because some people actually have the slightest bit of hope that Adam Sandler could make a decent comedy film again. But after Pixels, people are finally waking up and are getting tired of his shit. Why do you think he's forced to do 4 movie deal with Netflix. No professional in Hollywood wants to work with this lazy clown again.
Brutal reviews. I saw the first one on cable and actually laughed a few times. I have No plans seeing this at the theater but I would check it out when it lands on cable just to see if I agree with the critics.
The thing is, I am not an Adam Sandler hater. I was a huge fan of his growing up, just seemed like as I got older, his movies got more kiddish to me and seem to just get worse. He's proven form movies like The Wedding Singer, Punch Drunk Love, Reign Over Me, and Funny People that if he tries, he can be taken seriously an actually "act". Those movies were all successful and praised. I just wish he would do more stuff like that. Still funny, but not 12 year old, toilet humor funny like this.
Yeah, sounds about right. I don't see in fault in their logic. I gotta say the guy who seemed to be saying Shaq was too good of an actor to be in this movie was have been high or joking. Shaq and actor should NEVER be used in the same sentence or paragraph for that matter.
that joke in the beginning did not make sense, he told them wasted was "when you have a hankering for ice cream" tell me then, how "I want to get chocolate [hankering for ice cream]" works?!
Yeah, you can say it's light on plot but visually stunning and incredible fun fairly quickly. Dissecting a Sandler 'movie' is really quite difficult and time consuming. It's abysmal on so may levels.
Okay, I haven't even seen this movie and I've already had so many people tell me it was good, I cannot wait to see it because I love a movie that can give me a good laugh. Like critics need to stop trying to hate on the movie and just laugh a little. The first grown ups was hilarious and that's why it made so much money. Grown ups 2 is obviously gonna get a lot of money too
I am fifteen years old, and this movie was not funny at all. I am a Sandler fan, but this movie was a task to watch. Sandler needs to get rid of Dennis frickin Dugan! Dugan is a horrible director!
It seems like everyone on the internet has the same oppinion. we all agree that these sandlerfilms are the biggest BS ever...so WHY the f.. are they still earning money? Who watches this BS?
'The jokes succeed of recognition and not actual humor, oh I recognise that, that's funny ha' Matt hits it spot on, I feel like this is why The Big Bang Theory is so popular, it just references crap and there's not actual humor to it.
MAYBE I DONT WANNA RELAX. maybe I am super relaxed. you don't know. it's a total mystery to you all, but you keep saying it. Does me having an aversion to people joking about cancer mean I'm not relaxed? (spoiler: no. it doesn't)
I like redlettermedia's theory that this is basically a scam. He gets a bunch of buddies, they get tons of money from producers and sponsors and spend none of it on actually making the movie.
i love it when you guys bash a movie. So fun. Only people who don't watch your channel can say you are snobs, you consistently give higher ratings than all the other critics in fun movies than other critics, your criticisms are always intelligible, you have true love for the art Best review team, i only trust you!!! You finally all watch a movie and it's Grown Ups 2. Bad luck.
Matt said anybody thought this is funny is bad people, but he liked last years That's My Boy, a movie that had a grown woman seducing a 13 year old boy, and had incest. Grown Ups was not a great film, but it had none of those things that That's My Boy had, so what does that make you Matt
About fucking time. The difference is these critics are being paid, so Matt's positive reviews for JACK AND JILL, THAT'S MY BOY and other Sandler fans prove he's a pay-off....too little, too late, if you ask me. :)
I call bullshit! Adam sandler is a living legend. Now I will admit he has been slipping, but he has influenced so many kids and has been a part of all of our childhoods. like happy Gilmore, billy Madison, the wedding singer, big daddy, those movies are so well known because Sandler is a genius and doesn't deserve this for trying to make people laugh a little.
have any of you even seen the movie? its soooo freaking hilarious, the whole theater was laughing while I was in there, ON OPENING NIGHT. thats how good it was
And they edited down The Way Way Back review. They're are only playing to a wide audience because all they care about are the number of views, not movie lovers. It's too bad. This venue could get the word out on smaller films but they choose not to. A shame.
if you hate critics you should NEVER engage in any form of art. All art has professional critics. The point of criticism is to better the art as a whole. You don't have to agree with critics and can go enjoy whatever you like but criticism is part of the game of art. if you can't handle the response to putting your art out there then don't put it out there.
I have a passion for film, I want to grow up to be in filmmaking, but I HATE critics. Especially the arrogant kind like these guys who think they know everything about comedy and filmmaking. I hate critics because they act like their opinion is the only opinion. Truth is, this film might be hilarious to some people and boring to others. I am going to see it, because I have LOVED Adam Sandler since I first saw him in Big Daddy when I was about 3. I LOVE Adam Sandler and I will see this film.
I think a commenter already said but I find this review funnier then the actual movie and im a guy wose very easily please and I honestly hated this movie one of the rare times it happens
You know this movie can't be good when it has to use a mediocre joke from the first Grown Ups film in its trailer, where the daughter of one of the characters talks about getting "chocolate wasted". I know originality is a scarce commodity in mainstream Hollywood, but this takes the cake.
And yet this movie made 247 MILLION DOLLARS!!! It only cost $80 million, meaning it was very profitable!!! It made more money than "Gattaca," "The Shawshank Redemption," and "Bladerunner" COMBINED!!!
I just don't understand humanity...
I'm guessing people just wanna see stupid. However, knowing that this movie made more money than the fucking shawshank redemption movie, now I'm depressed. :(
"These aren't credits, they're inditement's" - classic line!
Could be the worst movie I ever witnessed. I can't believe I sat through this steaming pile of crap. It is up there with That's my Boy and Just go With it, I will never watch another Adam Sandler film again.
david spade makes kathy griffin look like george carlin even andy dick wouldn't do this movie
"you're bad people", god I love Matt. Because he is very professional and often gives dispassionate impartial "grownup" analysis, when he does bring the funny it just has that extra zing. Plus he has consistently been the best reviewer on this show.
I dig when Matt takes lead in a conversation b/c most of the time, he is cut-off during the convos.
Hmmmm yeah this movie was a pile of shit, I didn't laugh once, it's just a typical modern Adam Sandler film like Jack and Jill, it's a shame I liked the wedding singer and Happy Gilmore, this guy used to be funny but now not a chance
I'm 14 and even I thought this movie was a piece of crap.
Hilarious review. Glad to see you back, Matt!
No matter what I may disagree with Alonso Duralde on, I am SO HAPPY that we are united in searing hatred for Nick Swardson!!! That guy has NEVER been funny in anything. Even in Blades of Glory, which is actually quite funny, he was the one actor who sucked the fun out of the room. That guy should never work in anything ever again!
I had to watch this review twice, seriously one of the best WTF vids in a long time
So are you gonna attach a numerical score to that?
Someone I know told me they wanted to see this movie when it comes out and asked me to go with them. I told them I was going to stay home and watch "The Room".
I just might.
Was the critic who walked out Rex Reed?
I liked this movie but not as much as his old movies. I love happy Gilmore and Billy Madison. But I don't really know about this one its not as good as his old movies.
What was Christy's score?
Is there a what the flick t shirt?
Cenk was in the Original Grown ups review with Christy and Ben
***** nice profile piccolo XD
***** thanks all ready for dragonball super NEXT WEEK.
***** hell yeah me too time to fight some more enemies XD
I REALLY love Matt's analysis of the movie. It's intelligent, hilarious, and completely honest. People who pay to see these films are, indeed, bad people.
The worst thing is that he can make good movies, but because they don't do well, he gives up on them. Funny People continues to be a prophetic spell on Sandler's career.
How can the cast live with themselves?
I love What the Flick, and this video is a prime example why.
The thing is you know what these guys are capable of. To not even try and just grab a paycheck is insulting. I'm glad Matt got worked up about that and said what needed to be said.
I'll never understand why these guys are always so shocked that an Adam Sandler film is silly and lazy. C'mon, what do you expect?
I'm guessing because some people actually have the slightest bit of hope that Adam Sandler could make a decent comedy film again. But after Pixels, people are finally waking up and are getting tired of his shit. Why do you think he's forced to do 4 movie deal with Netflix. No professional in Hollywood wants to work with this lazy clown again.
It makes the earlier scenes connect later on in the movie
Brutal reviews. I saw the first one on cable and actually laughed a few times. I have No plans seeing this at the theater but I would check it out when it lands on cable just to see if I agree with the critics.
to be honest i like adam sandler movies some of them not all but i thought this movie was okay not great but okay.
Alonso, your Adam Sandler impression is spot on!
The thing is, I am not an Adam Sandler hater. I was a huge fan of his growing up, just seemed like as I got older, his movies got more kiddish to me and seem to just get worse. He's proven form movies like The Wedding Singer, Punch Drunk Love, Reign Over Me, and Funny People that if he tries, he can be taken seriously an actually "act". Those movies were all successful and praised. I just wish he would do more stuff like that. Still funny, but not 12 year old, toilet humor funny like this.
Great review
"I gave it a .2 because at least it's in focus." hahah
😂😂
What would you say was the funniest joke in there?
Yeah, sounds about right. I don't see in fault in their logic. I gotta say the guy who seemed to be saying Shaq was too good of an actor to be in this movie was have been high or joking. Shaq and actor should NEVER be used in the same sentence or paragraph for that matter.
Everyone looks nice and the set looks good, good review too.
that joke in the beginning did not make sense, he told them wasted was "when you have a hankering for ice cream" tell me then, how "I want to get chocolate [hankering for ice cream]" works?!
waterboy?
Yeah, you can say it's light on plot but visually stunning and incredible fun fairly quickly. Dissecting a Sandler 'movie' is really quite difficult and time consuming. It's abysmal on so may levels.
I know right
Okay, I haven't even seen this movie and I've already had so many people tell me it was good, I cannot wait to see it because I love a movie that can give me a good laugh. Like critics need to stop trying to hate on the movie and just laugh a little. The first grown ups was hilarious and that's why it made so much money. Grown ups 2 is obviously gonna get a lot of money too
I gotta say, they are all really on their game here.
I doubt that.
I am fifteen years old, and this movie was not funny at all. I am a Sandler fan, but this movie was a task to watch. Sandler needs to get rid of Dennis frickin Dugan! Dugan is a horrible director!
Clearly there are lots of people who like these movies since they felt they needed to make a second one.
It seems like everyone on the internet has the same oppinion. we all agree that these sandlerfilms are the biggest BS ever...so WHY the f.. are they still earning money? Who watches this BS?
It all depends on your mindset going into the movie theatre. It's a good movie if you want a laugh
I'm certainly not going to see this movie, but Adam Sandler has been famous for over 20 years. That is not a "small window of fame."
Purple shirt guy you’re spot on
hey when they will put grown ups 2 on the internet please reply :D
i think it is Click
How does Adam Sandler keep getting work?
'The jokes succeed of recognition and not actual humor, oh I recognise that, that's funny ha' Matt hits it spot on, I feel like this is why The Big Bang Theory is so popular, it just references crap and there's not actual humor to it.
MAYBE I DONT WANNA RELAX. maybe I am super relaxed. you don't know. it's a total mystery to you all, but you keep saying it. Does me having an aversion to people joking about cancer mean I'm not relaxed? (spoiler: no. it doesn't)
I love Alonso's OUTFEST tshirt!
Do you realize that it has been more than a decade since those films came out?
I predict it will do well because its not meant for mature movie critics its meant for drunk and high teens.
Actually its the most prophetic movie of all time, with 1979's THE CHINA SYNDROME a close second.
I like redlettermedia's theory that this is basically a scam. He gets a bunch of buddies, they get tons of money from producers and sponsors and spend none of it on actually making the movie.
Where's Rob Scheneider at!??
Matt is really on the ball with this one, I'd say he he's the best next to alonso
What about 'The World's End' a great release!
Still the best movie review on the internet
"Those aren't credits; these are indictments."
i love it when you guys bash a movie. So fun. Only people who don't watch your channel can say you are snobs, you consistently give higher ratings than all the other critics in fun movies than other critics, your criticisms are always intelligible, you have true love for the art Best review team, i only trust you!!!
You finally all watch a movie and it's Grown Ups 2. Bad luck.
I remember liking grown ups when i was 10. Watched in theaters. Wow, has my opinion changed!
Yes the storm is coming
Matt Atchity - "You're bad people"
I wish I could "thumbs up" that comment alone.
Damn. What a great episode. Matt, I completely agree with you 100% This film, just by the trailers, looks BEYOND lazy.
Matt said anybody thought this is funny is bad people, but he liked last years That's My Boy, a movie that had a grown woman seducing a 13 year old boy, and had incest. Grown Ups was not a great film, but it had none of those things that That's My Boy had, so what does that make you Matt
Well, I said that I can't remember ever finding Sandler and Spade funny. I never claimed to be everyone.
he owns a production company.
It's funny how everybody tries to be a critic through UA-cam comments, like honestly this movie was hilarious
Sandler was great in Punch Drunk Love. If he only he still made films like that.
About fucking time. The difference is these critics are being paid, so Matt's positive reviews for JACK AND JILL, THAT'S MY BOY and other Sandler fans prove he's a pay-off....too little, too late, if you ask me. :)
I call bullshit! Adam sandler is a living legend.

Another video that is hilarious with the subtitles on. You're Welcome.
Guy in purple shirt is spot on
I kinda liked Nick Swardson in Click and a couple other movies.
Than what?
have any of you even seen the movie? its soooo freaking hilarious, the whole theater was laughing while I was in there, ON OPENING NIGHT. thats how good it was
And they edited down The Way Way Back review. They're are only playing to a wide audience because all they care about are the number of views, not movie lovers. It's too bad. This venue could get the word out on smaller films but they choose not to. A shame.

The bumpty scenes were pretty funny.. Other than that the movie was a pile of dogshit.
i truly tried to find a plot in this movie
Its a shame that GU2 earned more at the box office than Pacific Rim on its opening weekend...
the woman is surprisingly intelligent. Wish there were more women like here...
how did this cost 80 million?
I have a passion for film, I want to grow up to be in filmmaking, but I HATE critics. Especially the arrogant kind like these guys who think they know everything about comedy and filmmaking. I hate critics because they act like their opinion is the only opinion. Truth is, this film might be hilarious to some people and boring to others. I am going to see it, because I have LOVED Adam Sandler since I first saw him in Big Daddy when I was about 3. I LOVE Adam Sandler and I will see this film.
I would see Grown Ups 3 if the plot revolves around Adam Sandler changing his mind about family values and then kills everyone with a chainsaw.
I think a commenter already said but I find this review funnier then the actual movie and im a guy wose very easily please and I honestly hated this movie one of the rare times it happens
You linked to the Rotten Tomatoes page for Monster's University.
Just saying!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this review!!!
So I guess this will be a prime contender for the Razzie awards.
I am glad that I waited for this movie to come out on rental. If I watched it in the movies I would be pissed.
I see, terminal, stage 4, well played sir..
Matt Atchity is great in this clip!
You know this movie can't be good when it has to use a mediocre joke from the first Grown Ups film in its trailer, where the daughter of one of the characters talks about getting "chocolate wasted". I know originality is a scarce commodity in mainstream Hollywood, but this takes the cake.
apparently true!
It's so depressing to see Maria Bello in these movies, she was amazing in A History of Violence
No Rob Schneider but we got Jon Lovitz...Yeah!
Ben you definitely know your stuff
